, and not much else. But if you replace that metallic ink with real silver, you get something quite remarkable: a pen that can draw functioning circuits on paper. Engineers at the University of ...

Professors Jennifer Lewis and Jennifer Bernhard at the University of Illinois have come up with a way to draw circuits with a pen. Not circuit diagrams. Any old pen can do that. No, the pen is a ...

Draw Circuits 17-piece maker kit (Circuit Scribe) is a fun way to learn more about circuits and how to use them in different ways. It’s fun making them using a pen with conductive ink. When it lights ...

IBM is tinkering with a new material that could drastically slash the costs of "drawing" circuits on semiconductors, and the stuff is a close relative to tennis shoe glue. At the International ...

Forget printing circuits: how about drawing ’em instead? At least, that’s what you can do with this rollerball, which spews out conductive silver ink to let you doodle circuits all day long. The ...

Scientists have developed a way to produce soft, flexible and stretchy electronic circuits and radio antennas by hand, simply by writing on specially designed sheets of material. This technique could ...

Big Blue is tinkering with a new material that could drastically slash the costs of ?drawing? circuits on semiconductors, and the stuff is a close relative to tennis shoe glue. Michael Kanellos is ...
